If you have been wondering why I haven’t posted any new videos this month, it’s because I’ve been travelling across India since the the 1st of March in search of some of the wildest safari experiences this incredible country has to offer…
Up to now I have seen wild elephants on foot at Jamoon in Corbett NP, gone on a boat safari in Satpura NP and spent time with a dhole family with pups in Pench NP… And, in total, I’ve seen no less than 12 tigers, including two enormous males AND two tiny cubs 😍 A massive thank you to Suyash and Tarini Keshari of Ameliya Safaris for hosting me 🙏🏻
For the rest of the month, I’ll be leading a Panthera Photo Safaris trip to Bandhavgarh and Kanha national parks with Lance and Kirstin van de Vyver, so keep an eye on my Instagram stories to follow along on this part of my adventure 📸🐅
